        <p>Hello! My name is Andrew! I am a web developer living in Seattle, WA (USA).</p>

        <p>
          I started into web development in the lates 1990s, building pages in HTML for school projects and a local record company. I got a little sidetracked for a while, but I got back into into web dev via a web dev certificate program at <a href="https://seattleu.edu">Seattle University</a>. Since then, I also became a web development instructor for beginner front-end web developers.

        <h2 className={style.headline}>About this Site</h2>
        <p>
          After a year of using a basic Boostrap template for my portfolio, I thought it seemed like a good time to get my act together and build a new personal home page, blog, and portfolio. The site is built in <a href="https://www.gatsbyjs.org/">GatsbyJS</a>. It's still a work in progress though. This portfolio is my first project using GatsbyJS or React, so there's a bit of a learning curve.
        </p>
        <p>I decided to add a blog because I wanted a place to write about my experiences in web development. I don't preclude the possibility that I may write about other topics of interest, like tabletop RPGs, game development, and LEGO.</p>

        <h2 className={style.headline}>About the Name</h2>
        <p>
          The name <em>profounddark.dev</em> is actually a reference to <a href="https://phantasystar.fandom.com/wiki/The_Profound_Darkness">The Profound Darkness</a>, the final enemy in the 1993/95 Sega Genesis game <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phantasy_Star_IV">Phantasy Star IV: The End of the Millenium</a>. It was the name I gave to my very first personal website that I built. Since then, I've used it for a variety of sites (including <a href="https://twitter.com/profounddark">Twitter</a> and <a href="https://github.com/profounddark">GitHub</a>). I have no affiliation with Sega Corporation or Sega of America. I just thought the idea of "the ultimate big bad guy" in a JRPG series having the name "Profound Darkness," which sounds like something a pretentious first year philosophy student would think up, is kind of funny.
